A Missive from Midgard

Greetings Heroes of the Realms,

I was pleased to see you again at the festivities you held at the north border of Rhiassa, The Gilded Lion and Silver Branch Summer Festival, this past weekend. I was pleased as well for you to have met my trusty Saurian Steed, Buttercup. In the years since you saved Norlund from total destruction the benevolent stewardship provided by Tychasaurus has allowed Midgard to prosper, and travel across its wide, fertile plains is mostly accomplished on smaller two-legged species of dinosaurs like Buttercup.

As I mentioned to you when we spoke, while Norlund was ultimately saved through your intervention, right now Yggdrasil, which connects together all of the lands of Norlund, is growing amuck. With Midgard and the other worlds made anew, the ancient tree no longer understands how to interconnect them all and as such, is tearing the lands apart with its gargantuan roots and branches as it tries. I remain confident that this issue can be dealt with but to do so you will no doubt need to traverse great distances across all of Midgard and beyond.

Thus, I am inviting you all to spend some time in the next few months coming across the Vanfrost to obtain your own Saurian Steeds. Provided below are all the instructions you should need to locate and capture your own theropod which you can then use when you travel once more to Norlund to right this final wrong.

Strength and Honor,

Ulric of the Jomsvikings
